Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the technical field of dynamic loudspeakers, in particular to a multipole engine array system and a loudspeaker.
- Traditional mid-and-tweeter loudspeaker units generally include cone loudspeakers, dome loudspeakers, horn loudspeakers, ribbon loudspeakers, and planar loudspeakers.
- Wavefronts of radiated waves of the cone loudspeaker, the dome loudspeaker and the horn loudspeaker are spherical waves. Wavefronts of the spherical waves change sharply from the center to the edge.
- a driving force generated by a voice coil is not laid flat on a membrane; instead, it is first transmitted to the edge of the membrane (the center of the membrane for individual mid-range loudspeakers), and then gradually transmitted to other parts of the entire membrane, which will necessarily take a certain amount of time. Therefore, the forces on various parts of the membrane will be uneven at a certain moment, and it is impossible to react quickly with the driving force of the voice coil at the same moment, which will cause distortion and delay of the membrane.
- the wavefronts of the radiated waves of ribbon loudspeakers and planar loudspeakers are plane waves. According to the characteristics of plane waves, the amplitude and phase of all particles on the plane perpendicular to the propagation direction are each equal (similar to parallel light), which is recognized as the ideal radiation manner with the lowest degree of distortion. Although the degree of distortion of plane waves is low, the diffusion ability beyond the range of the wavefronts is obviously insufficient, and the off-axis directivity drops sharply. Plane waves almost always radiate sound waves directly forwardly of the loudspeaker. When the radiation angle is greater than 120° (plus or minus 60°), the level of diffused radiation will deteriorate sharply, and the uniform radiation of 180° ⁇ 360° cannot be achieved. Although some ribbon tweeters and high-end electrostatic tweeters belong to dipoles, and their back sides can also radiate sound, but because the sound waves on the front side and back side are antiphase, the phase difference is 180°, so the use value is not high.
- the membrane and voice coil (circuit) of the existing ribbon tweeter loudspeakers are generally of an integral structure and equipped with a dedicated transformer.
- the upper limit of the high frequency of this kind of loudspeaker can be higher than that of dome tweeters, and the characteristic of its wavefronts being plane waves also makes its sound quality have a low degree of distortion in some cases.
- the size and mass of the membrane have a great influence on the frequency, the frequency band is not wide enough, and it is difficult to achieve a resonant frequency below 2000Hz.
- the wavefronts of the ribbon tweeter loudspeakers are plane waves, the directivity is very narrow.
- An air motion tweeter is a special isomagnetic ribbon tweeter. It is also made of a very thin film (PI) material with a metal circuit printed on it.
- the membrane and voice coil are also integral, which differs from the ribbon tweeter in that the membrane is made into a wrinkle shape transversely, and adjacent membrane wrinkles are squeezed transversely to eject airflow radiated sound waves.
- the upper limit of the high frequency is also similar to the ribbon tweeter, and the frequency width is better than the ribbon tweeter.
- due to its special membrane wrinkle structure it does not directly radiate sound waves forward, but transversely squeezes and ejects airflow radiated sound waves. Such ejected airflow will generate air vortex and form additional airflow sound and standing waves.
- the sound waves are in a state of transverse squeeze and collision, which causes phase distortion when sound waves of the same wavelength collide, whereas harmonic distortion occurs when high-order harmonics of integer multiples collide.

- the magnetic conduction plate 2 can conduct the S magnetic pole of the magnet 1 through the bottom plate portion 21 to the extending portions 22 located on both sides of the bottom plate portion 21.
- the magnetic lines of force from the N pole of the magnet 1 reach the extending portions 22 located on left and right sides of the magnetic conduction plate 2 respectively, and then return to the S pole of the magnet 1 to form a first magnetic circuit 31 and a second magnetic circuit 32 as shown in FIG. 8 .
- the heights of the end faces 221 of the extending portions 22 on the left and right sides of the magnetic conduction plate 2 are approximately the same as the height of the magnet 1 (the distance between the N pole and the S pole of the magnet 1).
- the magnetic field formed by the first magnetic circuit 31 and the second magnetic circuit 32 is an isomagnetic plane magnetic field.

- the end faces 221 of the extending portions 22 on both sides of the magnetic conduction plate 2 and second end faces (upper end faces) of the magnets 1 are approximately on the same horizontal plane, and the end faces 221 are inclined inward at a certain angle to reduce magnetic leakage.
- N+1 magnetic circuits can be formed by the N magnets 1 and the magnetic conduction plate 2.
- the magnetic conduction plate 2 will guide the magnetic poles of back sides (sides attached to a bottom surface of the magnetic conduction plate 2) of the two magnets 1 nearest to the edges on the left and right sides to the edges and front sides of the magnets 1 (sides close to the membrane 20) to form N+1 magnetic circuits.
- the number of magnets 1 is generally an odd number, so that the magnetic pole directions of the magnets 1 located at the left and right ends of the magnetic conduction plate 2 are the same, and the magnetic poles conducted to the extending portions 22 on the left and right sides of the magnetic conduction plate 2 are the same, thus enabling a magnetic circuit to be better formed in combination with the magnetic conduction plate 2.
- the engine assembly 10 composed of a composite magnet can increase the number of magnetic circuits, place the membrane 20 in a stronger magnetic field, and provide stronger electromagnetic induction force for the vibration of the membrane 20.
- the magnets 1 are magnetized in advance, and then the magnets 1 are glued and assembled on the magnetic conduction plate 2.
- the magnetic conduction plate 2 is a magnetic conductor, it will be actively attracted by the magnets 1.
- the magnets 1 are likely to be bumped and broken during the assembly process.
- an axial size of the magnet 1 needs to be limited within a certain range. If the height size of the loudspeaker 100 is relatively large, a plurality of magnets 1 with relatively small axial sizes may be connected in parallel up and down.
- the magnets 1 are N50 or higher-grade neodymium-iron-boron magnets, which can provide a stronger magnetic field, and the sizes of the magnets 1 can be smaller; the magnets 1 may also be made of other permanent magnet materials, which are not specifically limited in the present disclosure. If the diameter of the cylindrical section of the loudspeaker 100 is large enough or each independent engine assembly 10 uses a composite magnet, the power and efficiency of the loudspeaker 100 generated by the multipole engine array mode is much greater than other types of mid-range or tweeter loudspeakers.
- the housing 101 of the loudspeaker 100 may have a regular or irregular cylindrical structure.
- the cross section of the housing 101 may be circular, elliptical, quadrilateral, or the like.
- the present disclosure can form a multipole magnetic field enclosed by planes from a single-pole isomagnetic plane magnetic field in a multipole manner, so that each pole face of the membrane with multiple pole faces respectively radiates sound waves with a controllable power to a 360° or an arbitrarily settable angle space in a manner of multi poles with different angles, thereby realizing the ability of complete diffusion of the spatial distribution of sound waves.
- the multipole engine array system composed of a plurality of engine assemblies 10 can drive the membrane 20 to vibrate to form more audio information, and can perform high-power resolution on the sound, thereby achieving a super resolution ability on the sound.
- the multipole isomagnetic plane magnetic field generated by the magnetic circuit structure of the multipole engine array can uniformly push the induction membrane, there is no distortion and delay caused by the transition of the membrane of traditional moving-coil loudspeaker from the center of the voice coil connection part to the edge, which reduces the group delay of the loudspeaker, and makes the response speed faster.
- the multipole engine array system can perform high-power resolution on audio signals and in-depth restoration of dynamic details, and the spatial array distribution of the multiple engine assemblies 10 enables complete diffusion of sound waves. Since the circuit between each pole face 201 of the membrane 20 is a through path and each pole face 201 has a matching independent engine assembly 10, after receiving the same audio signal at the same time, each pole face 201 will generate a series of complicated vibrations over time.
- the audio resolution of the multipole engine array system provided by the present disclosure is analyzed according to the principle of Fourier transform.
- the principle of particle motion and Fourier transform if a full-frequency signal is accessed, the signal generated is a composite wave after synthesis from the perspective of frequency domain, and the signal generated is the sum of the particle motions from the perspective of time domain. If the principle of Fourier resolution is further used to resolve this composite wave or the sum of particle motions, multiple simple waves will be obtained, wherein the fluctuation of each simple wave and the displacement of particle in each element section can be understood as a simple harmonic vibration following the sine or cosine function.
- the present disclosure is formed by a plurality of independent engine assemblies 10 through a distributed array of pole faces, which is equivalent to a plurality of traditional single-engine loudspeakers working together. That is, the signals of the same channel are superimposed for multiple times in fluctuation mode of frequency domain and time domain according to the principle of Fourier transform, and finally the electrical-force-acoustic conversion process is completed.
- the five independent engine assemblies 10 are in a regular hexagonal array, driving the different pole faces 201 of the membrane 20 closely attached to them to vibrate.
- the resolutions of five engine assemblies 10 E 1 to E 5 can be obtained separately, and the resolution of all engine assemblies 10 can be obtained by superimposing or multiplying the five different resolutions, which can perform in-depth and detailed resolution on the audio signals.
- the sound wave radiation direction generated by the driving of each pole face 201 is different, and multiple sound waves are superimposed or coupled with each other, so that the sound waves can achieve a 360° omnidirectional radiation diffusion.
- the Shannon formula can be used to analyze the audio resolution of the loudspeaker.
- an equivalent analog is first made between the related terms of Shannon's information theory and the related terms of acoustics.
- the multiple engine assemblies 10 of the present disclosure split the same channel into multiple channels with the same number as the engine assemblies 10.
- Bandwidth which can be analogous to frequency width, that is, the difference between the highest frequency and the lowest frequency of the frequency components contained in the signal.
- the bandwidth is proportional to the capacity, has a unit of Hz, and is represented by H in the formula.
- the velocity is not equal to speed, but is proportional to speed.
- the frequency of the sound wave is determined by the sound source that produces the sound, and does not change with the change of the medium in which the sound is propagated. Therefore, the sound waves of different frequencies have different propagation velocities in the same medium. The lower the frequency is, the larger the wavelength and the larger the velocity will be; and the higher the frequency is, the smaller the wavelength and the smaller the velocity will be. In acoustics, the velocity is more affected by the low frequency end of the bandwidth.
- Error rate which can be equivalent to distortion rate.
- S/N is the signal-to-noise ratio, wherein S is the signal power (watts), and N is the noise power (watts); the information capacity C is the maximum transmission capacity of the channel. If the information source velocity R of the channel is less than or equal to the channel capacity C, then theoretically, the output of the information source can be transmitted through the channel with an arbitrarily small error rate.
- the velocity v is equivalent to the ratio of the wavelength to the unit time

Abstract
Description
- The present disclosure relates to the technical field of dynamic loudspeakers, in particular to a multipole engine array system and a loudspeaker.
- Traditional mid-and-tweeter loudspeaker units generally include cone loudspeakers, dome loudspeakers, horn loudspeakers, ribbon loudspeakers, and planar loudspeakers. Wavefronts of radiated waves of the cone loudspeaker, the dome loudspeaker and the horn loudspeaker are spherical waves. Wavefronts of the spherical waves change sharply from the center to the edge. A driving force generated by a voice coil is not laid flat on a membrane; instead, it is first transmitted to the edge of the membrane (the center of the membrane for individual mid-range loudspeakers), and then gradually transmitted to other parts of the entire membrane, which will necessarily take a certain amount of time. Therefore, the forces on various parts of the membrane will be uneven at a certain moment, and it is impossible to react quickly with the driving force of the voice coil at the same moment, which will cause distortion and delay of the membrane.
- The wavefronts of the radiated waves of ribbon loudspeakers and planar loudspeakers are plane waves. According to the characteristics of plane waves, the amplitude and phase of all particles on the plane perpendicular to the propagation direction are each equal (similar to parallel light), which is recognized as the ideal radiation manner with the lowest degree of distortion. Although the degree of distortion of plane waves is low, the diffusion ability beyond the range of the wavefronts is obviously insufficient, and the off-axis directivity drops sharply. Plane waves almost always radiate sound waves directly forwardly of the loudspeaker. When the radiation angle is greater than 120° (plus or minus 60°), the level of diffused radiation will deteriorate sharply, and the uniform radiation of 180°∼360° cannot be achieved. Although some ribbon tweeters and high-end electrostatic tweeters belong to dipoles, and their back sides can also radiate sound, but because the sound waves on the front side and back side are antiphase, the phase difference is 180°, so the use value is not high.
- The membrane and voice coil (circuit) of the existing ribbon tweeter loudspeakers are generally of an integral structure and equipped with a dedicated transformer. The upper limit of the high frequency of this kind of loudspeaker can be higher than that of dome tweeters, and the characteristic of its wavefronts being plane waves also makes its sound quality have a low degree of distortion in some cases. However, the size and mass of the membrane have a great influence on the frequency, the frequency band is not wide enough, and it is difficult to achieve a resonant frequency below 2000Hz. At the same time, since the wavefronts of the ribbon tweeter loudspeakers are plane waves, the directivity is very narrow.
- An air motion tweeter is a special isomagnetic ribbon tweeter. It is also made of a very thin film (PI) material with a metal circuit printed on it. The membrane and voice coil are also integral, which differs from the ribbon tweeter in that the membrane is made into a wrinkle shape transversely, and adjacent membrane wrinkles are squeezed transversely to eject airflow radiated sound waves. The upper limit of the high frequency is also similar to the ribbon tweeter, and the frequency width is better than the ribbon tweeter. However, due to its special membrane wrinkle structure, it does not directly radiate sound waves forward, but transversely squeezes and ejects airflow radiated sound waves. Such ejected airflow will generate air vortex and form additional airflow sound and standing waves. In addition, the sound waves are in a state of transverse squeeze and collision, which causes phase distortion when sound waves of the same wavelength collide, whereas harmonic distortion occurs when high-order harmonics of integer multiples collide.
- An object of the present disclosure is to at least solve one of the above-mentioned defects and shortcomings, and the object is achieved through the following technical solutions.
- The present disclosure provides a multipole engine array system, which is applied to a cylindrical loudspeaker and includes a plurality of engine assemblies distributed in an annular array, the plurality of engine assemblies being fixed inside the cylindrical loudspeaker through a mounting seat arranged in a housing of the cylindrical loudspeaker, wherein each of the engine assemblies includes a magnetic conduction plate and a magnet arranged in the magnetic conduction plate, a magnetic field is formed between the magnet and the magnetic conduction plate, and the plurality of the engine assemblies are arranged coaxially and annularly along a periphery of the mounting seat to form a multipole magnetic field with multiple magnetic pole directions.

- Further, a circuit is printed on the membrane, and the pole faces are connected to each other through the circuit.
- Further, each of the pole faces is a plane, vibrations of the pole faces of the membrane in different planes can form plane waves spreading in different directions, and the plane waves can be coupled with each other to form a multipole coupled plane wave.

- (2) As compared with a single-pole engine, the present disclosure can drive the membrane to vibrate at the same time to form more audio information, and can perform high-power resolution on audio signals, thereby improving the power and efficiency of the loudspeaker.
- (3) Since the multipole isomagnetic plane magnetic field generated by the multipole engine magnetic circuit structure can uniformly push the induction membrane, there is no distortion and delay caused by the transition of the membrane of traditional moving-coil loudspeaker from the part connected to the voice coil to other parts, which reduces the group delay of the loudspeaker, and makes the response speed faster.

FIGS. 1 to 8 show schematic structural views of a multipole engine array system provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown inFIGS. 1 to 8 , the multipole engine array system provided by the present disclosure is applied to acylindrical loudspeaker 100, and includes a plurality ofengine assemblies 10 arranged concentrically and distributed in an annular array. The plurality ofengine assemblies 10 are separated from each other and located in different planes, and are fixed inside thecylindrical loudspeaker 100 through a mountingseat 102 arranged inside ahousing 101 of thecylindrical loudspeaker 100. A central axis of thehousing 101 coincides with a central axis of the mountingseat 102, and the mountingseat 102 is fixed inside thehousing 101 through bolts. A periphery of the mountingseat 102 is covered with amembrane 20, and theengine assemblies 10 are installed between themembrane 20 and an outside face of the mountingseat 102. - The
engine assembly 10 includesmagnets 1 and amagnetic conduction plate 2. Themagnetic conduction plate 2 is a U-shaped magnetic conduction plate and has an integrated structure. The U-shaped opening of themagnetic conduction plate 2 faces themembrane 20. Themagnetic conduction plate 2 includes abottom plate portion 21 and extendingportions 22 located on both sides of thebottom plate portion 21, and themagnet 1 is installed on thebottom plate portion 21 of themagnetic conduction plate 2. An end face of one end (a lower end) of themagnet 1 is attached to an upper surface of thebottom plate portion 21, and an end face of the other end (an upper end) of themagnet 1 corresponds to an inner surface of themembrane 20 at a certain distance and is parallel with the inner surface. Anend face 221 of the extendingportion 22 and the end face of the other end (the upper end) of themagnet 1 form a magnetic pole face of theabove engine assembly 10. The upper and lower ends of themagnet 1 are magnetic pole ends (N or S) of themagnet 1. - There is a certain gap between left and right sides (non-magnetic-pole ends) of the
magnet 1 and inner walls of the extendingportions 21 on both sides of themagnetic conduction plate 2 respectively, so that a planar magnetic field is formed between themagnet 1 and themagnetic conduction plate 2. The plurality ofengine assemblies 10 are arranged coaxially and annularly along the periphery of the mountingseat 102 to form a multipole magnetic field with multiple magnetic pole directions. After the current is input, themembrane 20 can generate electromagnetic induction in the multipole magnetic field, which drives themembrane 20 to vibrate and emit a sound. - The mounting
seat 102 is of a polygonal prism structure, and includes a plurality of first cylindrical surfaces provided with themembrane 20 and a second cylindrical surface not provided with themembrane 20. Themembrane 20 surrounds the plurality of first cylindrical surfaces to form a polygonal prism-like membrane with a plurality of pole faces 201. Back sides of the pole faces 201 are attached to the outside surface of the mountingseat 102 throughPCB support plates 30. The first cylindrical surfaces of the mountingseat 102 are provided withU-shaped mounting grooves 1021 that match theengine assemblies 10, back sides of themagnetic conduction plates 2 are attached to surfaces of theU-shaped mounting grooves 1021, and the magnetic pole faces of theengine assemblies 10 correspond to back sides of the pole faces 201 at a certain distance. Aback plate 103 is fixedly installed on the second cylindrical surface, and a lead wire interface is provided on theback plate 103. The lead wire interface is connected to an input end and an output end of a circuit printed on themembrane 20 respectively. In a specific implementation, if the mountingseat 102 has a quadrilateral prism structure, it includes three first cylindrical surfaces and one second cylindrical surface, and themembrane 20 has three pole faces 201; if the mountingseat 102 has a hexagonal prism structure, it includes five first cylindrical surfaces and one second cylindrical surface, and themembrane 20 has five pole faces 201, that is, one cylindrical surface is always left on the mountingseat 102 for serving as theback plate 103. The mountingseat 102 may be a solid structure or a hollow structure. - Each
pole face 201 of the polygonal prism-like membrane 20 is a plane, and eachpole face 201 is in a different plane (that is, angles of the plurality of pole faces 201 are different from each other). Eachpole face 201 is connected to another one through a printed circuit. After the audio current is input, an audio signal is input from a current input interface located on one side of the back plate 103 (the second cylindrical surface). The pole faces 201 vibrate in different directions to form plane waves that spread in different directions. The above plane waves in different directions can be coupled with each other to form a multipole coupled plane wave. The multipole coupled plane wave spreads in different directions to form cylindrical waves, which can reduce a collision airflow caused by the collision of air particles containing sound waves, reduce standing waves, and reduce distortion of theloudspeaker 100 caused by air collision. - The number of pole faces 201 of the
membrane 20 and the size and shape of eachpole face 201 may not be completely the same, that is, the cross-sectional shape of themembrane 20 may be a regular or irregular polygon. In a preferred implementation, the cross section of themembrane 20 is an even-numbered polygon such as a quadrilateral or a hexagon. The number of pole faces 201 (cylindrical surfaces) of themembrane 20 is the number of edges of thepolygonal minus 1, and the number ofengine assemblies 10 matches the number of the pole faces 201 of themembrane 20. For example,FIG. 3 shows a membrane with three pole faces 201 and aloudspeaker 100 with threeengine assemblies 10, wherein the widths of the three pole faces 201 are different, and the numbers ofmagnets 1 in the threeengine assemblies 10 are different. Thefirst pole face 2011 and thethird pole face 2013 have the same width and are provided with onemagnet 1, and thesecond pole face 2012 has a larger width and is provided with threemagnets 1. Due to the different numbers ofmagnets 1, the width of themagnetic conduction plate 2 changes accordingly.FIG. 4 shows a membrane with five pole faces 201 and aloudspeaker 100 with fiveengine assemblies 10. In this embodiment, the width of eachpole face 201, the numbers ofmagnets 1, and the sizes of themagnetic conduction plates 2 are equal respectively. When the cross section of themembrane 20 is a quadrilateral, themembrane 20 has three pole faces 201; and when the cross section of themembrane 20 is a hexagon, themembrane 20 has five pole faces 201. - Since each
pole face 201 is not on the same horizontal plane, but adjoins each other at a specific angle, themembrane 20 can achieve sound radiation in different ranges, and the radiation range of the wavefronts formed by the vibration of multiple pole faces 201 of themembrane 20 can be set according to requirements. For example, themembrane 20 with three pole faces can achieve uniform sound radiation in a range of 180°, and themembrane 20 with more than three pole faces can achieve uniform sound radiation in a range of 360°. In case of a 360° omnidirectional mode, in order to ensure the uniformity of vibration, the sizes of different pole faces 201 of themembrane 20 are set to be the same. For example, the cross section of themembrane 20 shown inFIG. 4 is a regular hexagon. In case of a 180° pointing mode, the sizes of different pole faces 201 of themembrane 20 may be set to be different. For example, the cross section of themembrane 20 shown inFIG. 3 is a non-parallelogram with three pole faces. - Specifically, as shown in
FIG. 3 , the cross section of themembrane 20 is a quadrilateral and has three pole faces 201. The pole faces 201 include three irregular pole faces connected in sequence, i.e., afirst pole face 2011, asecond pole face 2012, and athird pole face 2013. In the quadrilateral cross section, the side of themembrane 20 which corresponds to the back plate is a signal connection part of themembrane 20. The audio signal is input from a current input interface on the side of theback plate 103, and pushes themembrane 20 to vibrate from the signal connection part of themembrane 20. Thefirst pole face 2011, thesecond pole face 2012 and thethird pole face 2013 respectively vibrate to generate plane waves spreading in different directions, and the plane waves in different directions can be coupled to form a multipole coupled plane wave. Since themembrane 20 has three pole faces 201, correspondingly, threeengine assemblies 10 are provided in themembrane 20 formed by the enclosure. - As shown in
FIG 4 , in this embodiment, theengine assembly 10 includes amagnet 1 and amagnetic conduction plate 2, and themembrane 20 includes five pole faces 201 of the same size. The five pole faces 201 with different angles are connected in sequence to form amembrane 20 with a regular hexagon cross section by enclosure. Correspondingly, fiveengine assemblies 10 are arranged in themembrane 20 formed by the enclosure. The audio signal is input from the current input interface on the side of the back plate 103 (the second cylindrical surface) to the signal connection part of themembrane 20, and the five pole faces 201 respectively generate electromagnetic induction in the magnetic field of the fiveengine assemblies 10 corresponding thereto, thereby driving eachpole face 201 to vibrate and emit a sound. With the use of five pole faces 201 with different angles, two adjacent pole faces 201 are coupled in a diffusion manner at an included angle greater than or equal to 120° and point to a different space, which expands the radiation range of the wavefronts formed by the vibration of themembrane 20. - If the
engine assemblies 10 use themagnets 1 alone, it is easy to generate magnetic leakage, and themagnets 1 in different planes will generate stray magnetic fields, which will interfere with the magnetic fields of different planes. Therefore, adding themagnetic conduction plate 2 to the periphery of themagnet 1 can not only increase the magnetic force, but also shield the magnetic field interference of theloudspeaker 100. The U-shaped semi-enclosed structure of themagnetic conduction plate 2 can prevent the interference of magnetic leakage and stray magnetic fields, and shield the magnetic field interference of theloudspeaker 100. In addition, themagnetic conduction plates 2 are quick and convenient to assemble, and can ensure that themagnets 1 are adhered firmly. - The
independent engine assemblies 10 inside eachpole face 201 of themembrane 20 are superimposed in a distributed array to form a multipole engine array system. The magnetic field formed by theengine assemblies 10 composed of themagnets 1 and themagnetic conduction plates 2 is an isomagnetic plane magnetic field, and the magnetic field formed by the multipole engine array system is a multipole magnetic field. In a specific implementation, the number and arrangement of theengine assemblies 10 are designed according to the power of the loudspeakers, the strength of the magnetic force, the inductive strength of the circuit, and the specific purpose of the membrane (for example, for tweeter, mid-range, or mid-and-tweeter combined loudspeakers). - The
magnet 1 in eachengine assembly 10 may be a single magnet or a composite magnet composed of multiple single magnets. The number of pole faces 201 of themembrane 20, the size of eachpole face 201, and the size of the cylindrical cross-sectional diameter of theentire loudspeaker 100 directly determine the three-dimensional sizes and number of themagnets 1, and also determine the efficiency of theloudspeaker 100. The larger the horizontal size or area of the pole faces 201 is, the larger the space for placing themagnets 1 and the greater the number of themagnets 1 will be. - With reference to
FIGS. 5 and7 , the magnetic pole directions of themagnets 1 and themagnetic conduction plates 2 are shown inFIG. 7 . Theengine assembly 10 composed of a single magnet includes a U-shapedmagnetic conduction plate 2 and amagnet 1 arranged in themagnetic conduction plate 2. The N pole of themagnet 1 faces up, and the S pole thereof faces down. A first end face (a lower end face) of themagnet 1 is attached to thebottom plate portion 21 of themagnetic conduction plate 2, and a magnetic circuit is formed between themagnet 1 and themagnetic conduction plate 2. The electromagnetic induction force formed by themembrane 20 in the magnetic circuit can push themembrane 20 to vibrate and emit a sound. Themagnetic conduction plate 2 can conduct the S magnetic pole of themagnet 1 through thebottom plate portion 21 to the extendingportions 22 located on both sides of thebottom plate portion 21. The magnetic lines of force from the N pole of themagnet 1 reach the extendingportions 22 located on left and right sides of themagnetic conduction plate 2 respectively, and then return to the S pole of themagnet 1 to form a firstmagnetic circuit 31 and a secondmagnetic circuit 32 as shown inFIG. 8 . The heights of the end faces 221 of the extendingportions 22 on the left and right sides of themagnetic conduction plate 2 are approximately the same as the height of the magnet 1 (the distance between the N pole and the S pole of the magnet 1). The magnetic field formed by the firstmagnetic circuit 31 and the secondmagnetic circuit 32 is an isomagnetic plane magnetic field. - With reference to
FIGS. 6 and8 , the magnetic pole directions of themagnets 1 and themagnetic conduction plate 2 are shown inFIG. 8 . Theengine assembly 10 composed of a composite magnet includes a U-shapedmagnetic conduction plate 2 and a plurality ofmagnets 1 arranged in the U-shapedmagnetic conduction plate 2. The plurality ofmagnets 1 are arranged at a certain interval in themagnetic conduction plate 2, and the magnetic pole directions ofadjacent magnets 1 are opposite. In this embodiment, threemagnets 1 are provided in themagnetic conduction plate 2. The N poles of thefirst magnet 11 and thethird magnet 13 near the inner walls on both sides of the U-shapedmagnetic conduction plate 2 face up, and the S poles thereof face down; the S pole of thesecond magnet 12 in the middle position of themagnetic conduction plate 2 faces up, and the N pole thereof faces down. Themagnetic conduction plate 2 guides the S magnetic poles of thefirst magnet 1 and thethird magnet 13 to the extendingportions 22 on left and right sides of themagnetic conduction plate 2 respectively to form a firstmagnetic circuit 31 and a secondmagnetic circuit 32 as shown in the figure, and a thirdmagnetic circuit 33 and a fourthmagnetic circuit 34 are respectively formed among the threeadjacent magnets 1 with opposite magnetic pole directions, which enhances the magnetic induction intensity. The end faces 221 of the extendingportions 22 on both sides of themagnetic conduction plate 2 and second end faces (upper end faces) of themagnets 1 are approximately on the same horizontal plane, and the end faces 221 are inclined inward at a certain angle to reduce magnetic leakage. - In the
engine assembly 10 composed of a composite magnet, as the number ofmagnets 1 increases, the number of magnetic circuits also increases, and N+1 magnetic circuits can be formed by theN magnets 1 and themagnetic conduction plate 2. Themagnetic conduction plate 2 will guide the magnetic poles of back sides (sides attached to a bottom surface of the magnetic conduction plate 2) of the twomagnets 1 nearest to the edges on the left and right sides to the edges and front sides of the magnets 1 (sides close to the membrane 20) to form N+1 magnetic circuits. In a specific implementation, the number ofmagnets 1 is generally an odd number, so that the magnetic pole directions of themagnets 1 located at the left and right ends of themagnetic conduction plate 2 are the same, and the magnetic poles conducted to the extendingportions 22 on the left and right sides of themagnetic conduction plate 2 are the same, thus enabling a magnetic circuit to be better formed in combination with themagnetic conduction plate 2. Theengine assembly 10 composed of a composite magnet can increase the number of magnetic circuits, place themembrane 20 in a stronger magnetic field, and provide stronger electromagnetic induction force for the vibration of themembrane 20. - During the assembly process of the
engine assembly 10, themagnets 1 are magnetized in advance, and then themagnets 1 are glued and assembled on themagnetic conduction plate 2. In addition, since themagnetic conduction plate 2 is a magnetic conductor, it will be actively attracted by themagnets 1. Themagnets 1 are likely to be bumped and broken during the assembly process. In order to reduce the assembly difficulty, an axial size of themagnet 1 needs to be limited within a certain range. If the height size of theloudspeaker 100 is relatively large, a plurality ofmagnets 1 with relatively small axial sizes may be connected in parallel up and down. In a preferred implementation, themagnets 1 are N50 or higher-grade neodymium-iron-boron magnets, which can provide a stronger magnetic field, and the sizes of themagnets 1 can be smaller; themagnets 1 may also be made of other permanent magnet materials, which are not specifically limited in the present disclosure. If the diameter of the cylindrical section of theloudspeaker 100 is large enough or eachindependent engine assembly 10 uses a composite magnet, the power and efficiency of theloudspeaker 100 generated by the multipole engine array mode is much greater than other types of mid-range or tweeter loudspeakers. - The
housing 101 of theloudspeaker 100 may have a regular or irregular cylindrical structure. When thehousing 101 has a regular cylindrical structure, the cross section of thehousing 101 may be circular, elliptical, quadrilateral, or the like. - The present disclosure can form a multipole magnetic field enclosed by planes from a single-pole isomagnetic plane magnetic field in a multipole manner, so that each pole face of the membrane with multiple pole faces respectively radiates sound waves with a controllable power to a 360° or an arbitrarily settable angle space in a manner of multi poles with different angles, thereby realizing the ability of complete diffusion of the spatial distribution of sound waves. As compared with a single-pole engine, the multipole engine array system composed of a plurality of
engine assemblies 10 can drive themembrane 20 to vibrate to form more audio information, and can perform high-power resolution on the sound, thereby achieving a super resolution ability on the sound. Since the multipole isomagnetic plane magnetic field generated by the magnetic circuit structure of the multipole engine array can uniformly push the induction membrane, there is no distortion and delay caused by the transition of the membrane of traditional moving-coil loudspeaker from the center of the voice coil connection part to the edge, which reduces the group delay of the loudspeaker, and makes the response speed faster. - The multipole engine array system can perform high-power resolution on audio signals and in-depth restoration of dynamic details, and the spatial array distribution of the
multiple engine assemblies 10 enables complete diffusion of sound waves. Since the circuit between eachpole face 201 of themembrane 20 is a through path and eachpole face 201 has a matchingindependent engine assembly 10, after receiving the same audio signal at the same time, eachpole face 201 will generate a series of complicated vibrations over time. - Specifically, in an embodiment, the audio resolution of the multipole engine array system provided by the present disclosure is analyzed according to the principle of Fourier transform. Specifically, according to the principle of particle motion and Fourier transform, if a full-frequency signal is accessed, the signal generated is a composite wave after synthesis from the perspective of frequency domain, and the signal generated is the sum of the particle motions from the perspective of time domain. If the principle of Fourier resolution is further used to resolve this composite wave or the sum of particle motions, multiple simple waves will be obtained, wherein the fluctuation of each simple wave and the displacement of particle in each element section can be understood as a simple harmonic vibration following the sine or cosine function. The present disclosure is formed by a plurality of
independent engine assemblies 10 through a distributed array of pole faces, which is equivalent to a plurality of traditional single-engine loudspeakers working together. That is, the signals of the same channel are superimposed for multiple times in fluctuation mode of frequency domain and time domain according to the principle of Fourier transform, and finally the electrical-force-acoustic conversion process is completed. The complete fluctuating state completed by multiple engine pole faces together can be expressed as: ∑E=E1+E2+...+En or ∑E=E×n, where ∑E represents the superposition or multiplication of all engine assemblies of the loudspeaker, E represents a single engine assembly, and n is the number of engine assemblies (pole faces)). As shown inFIG. 9 , "+" in the figure represents the current input, and "-" represents the current output. The fiveindependent engine assemblies 10 are in a regular hexagonal array, driving the different pole faces 201 of themembrane 20 closely attached to them to vibrate. The resolutions of five engine assemblies 10 E1 to E5 can be obtained separately, and the resolution of allengine assemblies 10 can be obtained by superimposing or multiplying the five different resolutions, which can perform in-depth and detailed resolution on the audio signals. In addition, the sound wave radiation direction generated by the driving of eachpole face 201 is different, and multiple sound waves are superimposed or coupled with each other, so that the sound waves can achieve a 360° omnidirectional radiation diffusion. - In another embodiment, the Shannon formula can be used to analyze the audio resolution of the loudspeaker. For ease of understanding, an equivalent analog is first made between the related terms of Shannon's information theory and the related terms of acoustics.
- Channel: which can be analogous to the audio channel of the signal, that is, the audio signal (audio channel) connected into the circuit of the loudspeaker. Generally, only one audio signal is connected into one traditional loudspeaker, and there is only one channel. However, the
multiple engine assemblies 10 of the present disclosure split the same channel into multiple channels with the same number as theengine assemblies 10. - Bandwidth: which can be analogous to frequency width, that is, the difference between the highest frequency and the lowest frequency of the frequency components contained in the signal. The bandwidth is proportional to the capacity, has a unit of Hz, and is represented by H in the formula.
- Velocity: which can be analogous to the ratio of the wavelength λ through which the particle displacement passes and the time t of passing through this wavelength λ, wherein v=λ/t. The velocity is not equal to speed, but is proportional to speed. The frequency of the sound wave is determined by the sound source that produces the sound, and does not change with the change of the medium in which the sound is propagated. Therefore, the sound waves of different frequencies have different propagation velocities in the same medium. The lower the frequency is, the larger the wavelength and the larger the velocity will be; and the higher the frequency is, the smaller the wavelength and the smaller the velocity will be. In acoustics, the velocity is more affected by the low frequency end of the bandwidth.
- Error rate: which can be equivalent to distortion rate.
- The Shannon formula C=Hlog2(1+S/N) shows that the information capacity C is directly proportional to each of the channel, the bandwidth H, and the velocity v, but the error rate is inversely proportional to the information capacity C, the channel, and the bandwidth H, and is directly proportional to the velocity v. S/N is the signal-to-noise ratio, wherein S is the signal power (watts), and N is the noise power (watts); the information capacity C is the maximum transmission capacity of the channel. If the information source velocity R of the channel is less than or equal to the channel capacity C, then theoretically, the output of the information source can be transmitted through the channel with an arbitrarily small error rate.
- In this embodiment, the velocity v is equivalent to the ratio of the wavelength to the unit time, the channel capacity C is equivalent to the frequency width H, and the error rate is equivalent to the distortion rate (DR); in order to reduce the distortion, the frequency width H can be increased or the velocity v can be reduced. If the frequency width H and the velocity v increase at the same time or only one of them increases, the amount of information passing through the channel will also inevitably increase; and if the frequency width H decreases at the same time or only one of them decreases, the amount of information passing through the channel will also inevitably decrease. Since the channels of the multipole engine array system of the present disclosure are in a multi-point distributed array mode, when the number of channels is greater than or equal to 2, the overall amount of information and the channels are superimposed in an array.
- As shown in
FIG. 10 , fiveindependent engine assemblies 10 are in a regular hexagonal array, driving the different pole faces 201 of themembrane 20 closely attached to them to vibrate. When the same audio signal is accessed, the channels are split into Cn1 to Cn5 sub-channels. According to the Shannon formula, the total information capacity can be expressed as ∑C=Hlog2(1+S/N)×cn, where ∑C is the sum of the information passing through all the channels, H is the frequency width, and the lowercase cn is the number of channels superimposed in an array. If the signal-to-noise ratio S/N is ignored, the formula can be simplified as ∑C=H×cn, that is, the sum of the information passing through all the channels is equal to the bandwidth multiplied by the number of channels. This formula can be equivalent to the formula obtained through the Fourier transform above: "∑E=E1+E2+...+En or ∑E=E×n", that is, the sum of all engine assemblies is equal to the superposition or multiplication of individual engine assemblies. - The analysis of the audio resolution of the loudspeaker using the Shannon formula shows that the use of the multipole engine array system can drive the
membrane 20 to form more information capacity C at the same time, while also making the information capacity C and the frequency width H of the loudspeaker controllable, which can improve the ability of resolving the audio signals of theloudspeaker 100 and the ability of controlling the loudspeaker. The audio information capacity C is allowed to be split to a horizontal three-dimensional space pointed to by the multiple pole faces 201 of themembrane 20. The energy release space is centered on the physical position of theloudspeaker 100 itself, and is larger or wider than that of a traditional single-engine loudspeaker. Under the condition of ensuring that the frequency width in the direction perpendicular to eachpole face 201 is not affected, the horizontal pointing angle and efficiency of eachpole face 201 can be controlled. - In yet another embodiment, the audio resolution of the loudspeaker is analyzed in the way of equivalent circuit modeling, and lumped parameters of the electrical-force-acoustic conversion process are integrated in the way of circuit model to form an equivalent circuit model. In this way, mechanical (force) and acoustic (sound) parameters can be converted into electrical (electric) parameters, which are displayed and calculated in the form of reactance in the circuit. The reactance in the equivalent circuit model includes resistance RE (impedance) and inductance LVC (inductive reactance). As shown in
FIG. 11 , a multipole engine array system composed of fiveindependent engine assemblies 10 is taken as an example for illustration. In the figure, RC is the resistance of the induction membrane, LC is the inductance of the induction membrane, and GEN is the power supply. The connection of the fiveindependent engine assemblies 10 to theloudspeaker 100 through the circuit is similar to five independent equivalent circuit connections. As compared with a single engine system, multiple independent equivalent circuit connections can perform different resolutions on the audio signals, improve the ability of high-power resolution on the original audio signals, and improve the performance of the loudspeaker. - In the multipole engine array system of the present disclosure, since individual engine assemblies are independent from each other, and they cooperate to push the different pole faces of the membrane closely connected to them to vibrate, so that colorful sounds can be resolved, thereby achieving high-power resolution on audio signals, in-depth restoration of dynamic details, and complete diffusion of the spatial distribution of sound waves.
- The present disclosure also provides a loudspeaker including the above-mentioned multipole engine array system. The loudspeaker is a tweeter loudspeaker and/or a mid-range loudspeaker. The loudspeaker also includes a cylindrical housing, which has a cylindrical structure or an elliptical cylindrical structure. Since the wavefronts of the sound waves radiated by the loudspeaker in the air are cylindrical waves, a pure linear array can be generated, so the loudspeaker provided by the present disclosure is suitable for a linear sound source system.
- When the loudspeaker is applied to a linear sound source system, the center of the mounting
seat 102 of theloudspeaker 100 is provided with a throughhole 1022 that can penetrate the upper and lower ends of the mountingseat 102. The through hole can connect a plurality ofdifferent loudspeakers 100 together in an array. Cylindrical waves generated by the plurality ofloudspeakers 100 in the air by radiation can form a line array. - It should be pointed out that in the description of the present disclosure, terms "install", "connect" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense.

- It should be pointed out that in the description of the present disclosure, terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and it is not necessarily required or implied that there is any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
